Kurt Angle On Chad Gable In WWE: "Someday They're Going To Utilize Him Correctly"
Angle knows an Olympic hero when he sees one
Though many fans and critics feel that Chad Gable has been misused in WWE, Kurt Angle feels it won't be that way forever.
The WWE icon spoke glowingly of Gable on his Kurt Angle Show podcast, and while he acknowledged that his fellow Olympic wrestler hasn't been used to his fullest potential, Angle believes that will change one day.
"Chad has been underutilized, and I believe it's his size, even though he's as strong as an ox," Angle noted. "He does a deadlift German with 300-pounders and it's impressive. To do something like that, that's a talent you want to utilize. He's the real deal. He might not look that big, but his strength, technique, and ability show in those matches. If you put reins on the kid, he's not going to succeed, but if you let him go and let him do his thing, he's going to be a huge star.
"Someday, they're going to utilize him correctly. People get injured, main event wrestlers especially because they are putting in the most work. Eventually, he's going to get called up into a spot and he's going to blow their minds and they'll keep him in that spot. It's going to happen eventually."
